T. brumale and T. fimbriatum were found to be fairly widely distributed whereas Pouzar described T. kotlabae as new to science from near Kúty in the Záhorská nížina2 in SW Slovakia. T. pulchellum was reported by Pouzar (1958; as T. hollosii) from Slovakia but was last recorded in 1961 (Kreisel 1963, Moreno & al., 2000). During recent years findings of Tulostoma species have been reported by Škubla (1993, 1995, 1996), Kabát and Orthová (1997) and Kabát (1997). For adjacent areas in Burgenland and Niederösterreich (E Austria) Mrazek & al. (1995) added important contributions. In Slovakia and neighbouring regions of the Czech Republic and Austria nine species of Tulostoma are on record. A few more species can be added if the sandy plains of central Hungary be included. The Hungarian taxa are however currently under study and will not be dealt with here. Tulostoma is a cosmopolitan genus having its centre of species diversity in steppic and semi-desertic regions. The genus comprises 79 species worldwide (Kirk & al. 2001) and about 20 species have been recorded in Europe. Tulostoma species are considered threatened in a number of European countries and some of the species are even classified as regionally extinct. On a European scale only T. brumale and T. fimbriatum appear to be regularly met with, others are very rarely reported. There might be a general population decrease for xerophytic macromycetes due to changing land use causing overgrowth because of ceased grazing as well as irrigation and cultivation of steppe habitats, nitrification etc. It is however also a fact that Tulostoma species are easily overlooked, growing in habitats rarely visited by mycologists combined with a certain 1 Lilla Håjumsgatan 4, SE-461 35 Trollhättan; [email protected] 2 Záhorská nížina is the name of a region (also called Záhorie) in SW Slovakia. The southern lowland part is known as Borská nížina, the northern upland part is called Chvojnická pahorkatina. For details of the geomorphological division of Slovakia see E. Mazúr & M. Lukniš. 1986. Geomorfologické členenie SSR a ČSSR. Bratislava. 6 Catathelasma 10 December 2008 taxonomical confusion caused by the relatively few morphological characters that can be used for identification. In the Slovak Red List (Lizoň 2001), one species of Tulostoma is considered to be threatened: T. kotlabae (EN – endangered according to the IUCN criteria). In the Czech Republic (Holec & Beran, 2006) T. pulchellum and T. moravecii are potentially extinct, whereas T. melanocyclum is considered endangered (EN). In Austria six species of Tulostoma are on the national red list (Krisai-Greilhuber, 1999). According to Austrian criteria T. armillatum, T. kotlabae, T. melanocyclum and T. moravecii are strongly endangered (2) whereas T. fimbriatum and T. squamosum are treated as endangered (3). The present survey concentrates on the species so far known from Slovak territory but a couple of species known from the Czech Republic and Austria are added since they are likely to appear also in Slovakia. The information on the presented species is based on my own field work in the area during the period 2000-2008 as well as on records available in literature and on the Internet. Additional herbarium samples were kindly provided by the Slovenské narodné múzeum in Bratislava (BRA). The aim of this paper is to highlight a group of fungi which are rarely collected but nonetheless important in the conservational work, nationally as well as internationally. Material of Tulostoma collected during my field work in Slovakia is deposited in herbarium BRA with duplicates in herbarium GB (University of Göteborg, Sweden) and in the author’s personal herbarium (MJ). ECOLOGY Most species of Tulostoma occur in dry and sun-exposed situations, usually among mosses and low herbs in places with scarce and sometimes patchy vegetation, either on sandy soil (sand steppes, sand dunes), in dry grasslands or rupicolous steppe habitats. A few species occur among grasses on mull rich soil in wooded or at least partially shaded habitats. Tulostoma species are considered to be saprotrophs although several species appear to be associated with mosses. MORPHOLOGY MACROSCOPICAL FEATURES The fruitbody of a mature Tulostoma consists of a spore sac and a stem usually with a mycelial tuft at its base. Initially the fruitbody is globose – subglobose and develops hypogeously just beneath the soil surface. It is then totally covered by the exoperidium. At maturity the stem expands December 2008 Catathelasma 10 7 and raises the spore sac which contains the mature spore mass. The spore sac consists of the endoperidium which covers the gleba. A small apical stoma (mouth) opens to enable the spores to puff out when the wall of the spore sac is being mechanically compressed (by wind, rain drops, trampling) in the mode of a bellow´s mechanism (Sunhede, 1976). When in a raised position, the thin exoperidium covers the endoperidium. Usually it encrusts sand and soil particles. It is either hyphal (thus appearing as a thin hyphal mat on the endoperidium, gradually wearing away) or membraneous (i. e. well differentiated from the endoperidium from which it usually peels off in flakes or membraneous patches). The structure of the exoperidium is an important key-character and a base for the infrageneric taxonomy. The colour of the exoperidium is usually whitish – greyish but this is often difficult to observe because of adhering sand and soil and by the fact that it soon disappears after maturity. It generally remains at the base of the spore sac as an annular, sand encrusted socket. The type of mouth is another taxonomically important feature used in current classification. The mouth is either regular, i. e. a round pit with a regular, entire, even margin which is either flat or more or less protruding like a tube, or less defined, irregularly rounded with a silky or fimbriate, uneven margin. The mouth can be surrounded or not by a darker ring zone or have a delimited peristome, depending on species. The endoperidium is initially reddish brown – orange brown – ochre or more or less white. When dark the colours usually wear away with age to become more or less white or pale ochre – greyish. The stem has a tough and woody texture, is rather thin, 2-4 mm in diametre and usually expanding to 15 – 50 mm in length.

Martyn Ainsworth 53 Elm Road, Windsor, Berkshire. SL4 3NB October 2004 You may reproduce as many additional copies of this report as you like, provided such copies stipulate that copyright remains with English Nature, Northminster House, Peterborough PE1 1UA ISSN 0967-876X © Copyright English Nature 2004 Executive summary Fungi constitute one of the largest priority areas of biodiversity for which specialist knowledge, skills and research are most needed to secure effective conservation management. By drawing together what is known about the 27 priority BAP species selected prior to the 2005 BAP review and exploring some of the biological options open to fungi, this handbook aims to provide a compendium of ecological, taxonomic and conservation information specifically with conservationists’ needs in mind. The opening section on fungus fundamentals is an illustrated account of the relative importance of mycelia, fruit bodies and spores, without which many ecosystem nutrient cycles would cease. It is not generally appreciated that mycelia have been recorded patrolling territories of hundreds of hectares, living over a thousand years or weighing as much as a blue whale. Inconspicuous fungi are therefore amongst the largest, heaviest and oldest living things on Earth. The following sections describe the various formal and informal taxonomic and ecological groupings, emphasizing the often intimate and mutually beneficial partnerships formed between fungi and other organisms. The different foraging strategies by which fungi explore their environment are also included, together with a summary of the consequences of encounters between fungi ranging from rejection, combat, merger, takeover and restructuring to nuclear exchanges and mating.

POLEMIS * [email protected] 1Agricultural University of Athens, Lab. of General & Agricultural Microbiology, Iera Odos 75, GR-11855 Athens, Greece 2 [email protected] National Agricultural Research Foundation, Institute of Environmental Biotechnology, Lakonikis 87, GR-24100 Kalamata, Greece Abstract — In the course of a nine-year inventory in Mt. Oxya (central Greece) fir forests, a total of 358 taxa of macromycetes, belonging in 149 genera, have been recorded. Ninety eight taxa constitute new records, and five of them are first reports for the respective genera (Athelopsis, Crustoderma, Lentaria, Protodontia, Urnula). One hundred and one records for habitat/host/substrate are new for Greece, while some of these associations are reported for the first time in literature. Key words — biodiversity, macromycetes, fir, Mediterranean region, mushrooms Introduction The mycobiota of Greece was until recently poorly investigated since very few mycologists were active in the fields of fungal biodiversity, taxonomy and systematic. Until the end of ’90s, less than 1.000 species of macromycetes occurring in Greece had been reported by Greek and foreign researchers. Practically no collaboration existed between the scientific community and the rather few amateurs, who were active in this domain, and thus useful information that could be accumulated remained unexploited. Until then, published data were fragmentary in spatial, temporal and ecological terms. The authors introduced a different concept in their methodology, which was based on a long-term investigation of selected ecosystems and monitoring-inventorying of macrofungi throughout the year and for a period of usually 5-8 years.

  • MODELIST23.Rtf 29/5/15 the BMS
    MODELIST23.rtf 29/5/15 The BMS Travelling Exhibition of Fungus Models: A Brief History Henry Tribe In 1987 the British Mycological Society arranged a Fungus Modelling Workshop in Pershore, Worcs. given by Dr S.Diamandis from Greece who specialised in latex moulding techniques. One of the participants was Mrs Eileen Chattaway of Charmouth, Dorset and by 1996 she had made some 35 models of fungi. These she kept at her home but she thought that they would be more useful if she loaned the majority of them to the Society for the purposes of a Travelling Exhibition to the general public. As Publicity Secretary of the BMS at the time, arrangements fell to me. The first exhibition was at the Royal Literary and Scientific Institution in Bath. Eileen herself brought her models to Bath, carefully wrapped for transit, but we realized following the exhibition that individual boxes for each model were needed for transit purposes. The President, Steve Moss, agreed that this was necessary and 29 individual boxes were ordered from Dauphin Display Ltd of Oxford. Their Managing Director went to Charmouth to measure the models and found that four standard box sizes sufficed to fit them. Each box was made of acrylic sheet on a medium density fibre (MDF) base and could serve as an exhibition container inside a museum cabinet. The cost was £ 949 plus delivery (£ 94) and included four large hardboard boxes inside which the acrylic boxes fitted. A further charge of £ 88 was made for the visit to Dorset. Total cost = £ 1131. Steve Moss also asked Eileen Chattaway to value the models for insurance purposes and this came to £ 2825.

  • A New Record of the Rare Earthstar Geastrum Berkeleyi from the Świętokrzyskie Mts
    ACTA MyCoLoGICA Vol. 46 (1): 75–81 2011 A new record of the rare earthstar Geastrum berkeleyi from the Świętokrzyskie Mts JUSTynA JAWoRSKA Department of Botany, Institute of Biology, Jan Kochanowski University Świętokrzyska 15, PL-25-406 Kielce, [email protected] Jaworska J.: A new record of the rare earthstar Geastrum berkeleyi from the Świętokrzyskie Mts. Acta Mycol. 46 (1): 75–81, 2011. The article presents the third record of Geastrum berkeleyi Massee in Poland. For a long time the only known Polish locality of the species was in Kobylnica near Poznań, where G. berkeleyi was recorded in 1934. The fungus was found for the second time as recently as 2007 in Rąbiń (Kościan County). In 2009 this earthstar species was recorded in Milechowy reserve near Chęciny, in the western part of the Świętokrzyskie Mts (square ATPoL Ee 72). In the last mentioned locality, fruit-bodies of this rare fungus were recorded in a thermophilous forest habitats and also in a xerothermic anthropogenic shrublands, on a sandy calcareous soil. A comparison of diagnostic features of Geastrum berkeleyi var. berkeleyi and G. berkeleyi var. continentale is also given. Key words: distribution, macrofungi, Milechowy reserve, Poland INTRODUCTION The genus Geastrum is represented in Poland by 17 species (Wojewoda 2003). Con- sidering a characteristic morphological structure of fruitbodies they are relatively easy to recognize. Differences between particular species concern above all the sizes of fruitbodies, the shape of an exoperidium, the means in which an endoperidial body is attached to the exoperidium, the structure of a peristome, the habitat re- quirements and some microscopic features, especially the structure and the size of basidiospores.

Those arenicolous fungi are newly recorded for Japanese mycobiota. Descriptions, comments and illustrations of basidiomata of the three fungi are provided. Key words— biogeography, coastal environment, gasteromycetes, Geastrales, taxonomy Introduction The genusGeastrum Pers. belongs to Geastrales, Phallomycetidae (Hosaka et al. 2006) and includes currently about 50 taxa (Kirk et al. 2008). Most species of the genus are known as saprobes and are distributed throughout all continents except Antarctica. Several authors have systematically revised Geastrum (Staněk 1958, Ponce de Leon 1968, Dörfelt & Müller-Uri 1984, Dörfelt & Heklau 1987, Sunhede 1989).
